means that only military mechanisms if you don't work to bring justice or accountability. i have every right to know what my government should do if you want to know why i pay taxes. i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so for like sleep you think you understand it and then he glimpse something else you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything is all you don't i'm trying hard to look at the big picture. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right.

i think iraq is needed and wanted well. whenever the government says they're for keep you safe get ready because you are freedom. for five. ft five.

yes. the light will come. so fast you liars will be singing. ladies and gentlemen today there is a glimmer of hope in the world of technology by now we all know that the recording industry association of america which is also known as the r i a is out to get anyone who gets music through file sharing computer programs but a case in minnesota shows that the r. and r. i am campaign against americans might be facing a few obstacles you see jamie thomas roth that has been taken to court on three separate occasions by this organization and this time a jury decided that she would have to pay one point five million dollars for stealing twenty four songs off the file sharing site however there's

a glimmer of hope the judge overseeing the trial thought that one point five million dollars fines seemed a bit much after all that means the defendant is paying sixty two thousand dollars per song so u.s. district judge michael davis decided to step in and overrule the jury's judgment davis said their decision was so severe and oppressive as to be wholly disproportionate to the offense and obviously unreasonable and that is a quote so rather than the one point five million dollars fine the woman will only be shelling out lost a lot fifty four thousand dollars for all twenty four songs but let's put that into a comparison under the original ruling by the jury thomas ross that was going to pay sixty two thousand dollars for each song you downloaded but after a judge davis intervened they'll only pay two thousand dollars per track and to be very clear that's still a very hefty price but it proves there are more reasonable individuals in this world who agree that nobody should be forced into the. poor house for downloading

a few songs it's become clear that the record industry is out for blood and they want revenge on the millions of people who found ways to avoid paying for their media so they god there are judges out there like judge michael davis who thinks the outrageous fines pursued by the are i are about maybe as ridiculous as we do although we would have given a fifty four thousand dollar fine but we're giving our i am a slap across the face we'd say judge davis is a true glimmer of hope. and now all over the world people are desperately searching for help between the tragedy and tragedy in norway as we saw on friday the protests underway in spain over the economy or the outcry in israel over the outrageous housing prices everyone is searching for help taking the streets to try and do something well perhaps they should look to san diego california where superheroes are stuck to the max at comic-con and although these heroes don't exist in the real world many people come from across the globe to forget their troubles

and engage in a world where the biggest threat comes from a super villain not the government or to enjoy the more frivolous pursuits rather than face the world's problems head on and try to solve or challenge them but you can decide that for our parties or moan glinda takes us on a quest and hopes of finding a real life superhero to escape all troubles at comic-con. while bombs explode and thousands of american troops continue to fight in the country's longest war another battle is happening here at home. it's a fight against the harsh realities of life. these days you'll never see this many people protesting the wars yet more than one hundred thousand people attended comic con the world's largest comic book convention this is

a costume party on steroids where the world's worries go out the window people in power i wish i had was teleportation and who wouldn't want to be in themselves up from the harsh realities of today's america are just scared of. this life is a joke in itself that's going to sweep really is going. however life is no joke for a large segment of the u.s. population like these people living on the sidewalks just a few blocks from the convention where in sunny san diego california a city known for its beaches and summer attractions it's also an area which is dealing with double digit unemployment and a growing homeless population but instead of focusing on these tough realities of life thousands of people from all over the world have the center on this city this weekend in order to escape reality i have are trying to put a five. different world i didn't have that i probably go crazy

any fears over the economy anything like that your economy is interesting you know . but that land that i come from certainly has a stronger economy despite the distraction that goes with comic-con simcox in crusaders do have concerns over where our country is headed some of us think that maybe the power. this coming out today was a under threat of a baby well thousands of people celebrate called a con with no fear millions of americans are truly fearful about losing their jobs homes or benefits during this great recession this convention is a place where people can be themselves by acting like someone else to show. us that the worth of the insects and well most americans fret about politicians in a billet he took out a deal both avoiding the impending u.s. debt default is the economy here and take the weekend off and just relax tops in

coffee do it in costume. rather than the dresses erica america may indeed need a superhero to see the day in said diego ramon the lindo party. began super as president obama promised he'd be one as far as immigration reform and today he spoke to the largest national latino civil rights and advocacy organization to try and rally hispanic support if go to the national council of la raza. and one thing he didn't mention was a recently released report showing the obama administration has deported nearly four hundred thousand people setting a record according to the associated press president obama has said the past his policy is to deport quote the worst of the worst that happened the people deported were considered criminals so that's half and many of those criminals you may not exactly consider the worst of the course tens of thousands of them have been

arrested for drunk driving more than double the number in two thousand and eight under bush and three times the number of traffic violators were deported compared to two years ago now meanwhile integration reform one of obama's promises in his presidential campaign has stalled in congress here's what he said was that doesn't mean we don't have unfinished business. i promised you i would work tirelessly to fix our broken immigration system and make the dream act real. here talk about axl call the herald founder director and producer of a campaign from brave new foundation thank you for being with us so my first question to you is what leverage does obama have to tout achievements with the latino community as he did today when he hasn't delivered on immigration reform as he promised when latino unemployment is in the double digits and when reports show a record number of immigrants have been deported under his watch. it's

a very difficult situation that he's in and it's an uphill battle for sure the problem there we're facing is and still is still made on immigration reform nobody wants to talk about it nobody wants to push forward there's absolutely no leadership in their congress or the executive level and so he's going to have a hard time convincing groups who knows that in fact his record is impossible we're having so there are some other positive steps that have been taken i think the advances on the dream act particularly have been substantial over the last couple years even though we haven't really there certainly positive steps towards more you know obama today said that some believe that he should do more himself to do something about immigration reform and audience cheered and he said that's not how government works and he kind of blame republicans for the sculls immigration reform is that a cop out should he be doing more. well there should be leadership on the issue and i think with the latino community is really speaking out on is that there is

a lack of leadership nobody wants to take the responsibility to do it b.c. of immigration reform a political potato that nobody can figure that nobody wants to endorse and so when president obama says to the latino constituents that make him we respond by saying ok we're going to make sure we're definitely putting the pressure but you have to take leadership you have to do it every day every month and every week because if we only hear it when he scored ability novogratz going to be his main challenger and his main problem is le bron's are working against their own interests because analysts say that they pretty overwhelmingly support the white house's matching message on any number of issues and lobby for those so is that against their best interest should they not be giving so much support to the obama white house. well i think they're threading a fine line and i think and i think what they're doing is really working both angles i mean their constituents and their supporters really really favor

a strong immigration reform but in order to achieve that they have to be core to you with this ride because they need to keep the pressure on both the constituent level at the grassroots level but also at the level of the government became alienated the white house by saying you're not doing anything and so therefore we're going to stand back being new to work with provide housing i can get that's what we're doing certainly there's other organizations that are taking that stance but but you know we do have to remember that there is a congress that is absolutely blocking everything that we see and it's funny that we hear the g.o.p. constantly. obama's going to have president obama's going to have a very hard time convincing latino voters well that's pretty temperance from a bar stool because the g.o.p. has done absolutely everything in their ways and means to oppose any any advance on evil good or immigration you know it's interesting obama said today

that as a result of the stalls in immigration reform that more and more states are taking matters into their own hands which we've seen with a number of immigration laws passed at the state level which he said is not the right thing to do but what our state supposed to do if they're waiting around for the federal government to act in the government is not. well you know the states what do you need to do is take into account a comprehensive immigration reform approach we cannot have been is the interest this extra interest that we're having the big money interests and big private prison interests and big anti immigration interests pushing for these individual laws across the states that's what's feeling to go even that's the challenge that we as organizations and as the latino community have a head of us is to push against. those. and so this is what we're seeing is this is sweeping reform across states that are being influenced by big money interests that is the immigration reform stalls but is.

sorry i mean that step on your tongue does that our gaze as they shine like that have a vested financial interest obama's director of inner government out governmental affairs from the very beginning with creative things as a senior vice president charge of research advocacy and legislation and carry her tenure at the white house that's coincided with a sharp increase in federal funding for low rozza that's according to recent watch investigations so does that solidify the group's advocacy for obama's positions. well. in the role good lord ross is playing this is a very delicate role because at the same time that they're working with the right house to come out with the strongest ravenshoe they still have a very strong constituency the nnamdi in action so eventually will russell what they're going to have to do is to answer to their constituents and that's the first and foremost approach that they need to take that is certainly what other organizations are doing is listening to their supporters and pressure and strongly

for that again to reinstate is that what is going to be really hard is to alienate the right house we already have a sparse immigration reform a congress that is not working on that issue so therefore we need to continue that pressure and we will see if that. result in any results on immigration reform thank you for giving us their analysis of why all went down today. thank you so much for having me on and still to come words of wisdom on donald trump tonight's poll titled the art of war and that and all that and then stick around for our monday edition of happy hours not here earlier in the week to enjoy life as scientists finally proves you can't go back to the future plus the russian jersey shore is coming to t.v. stick around for some fun. into that only a military mechanisms can do the work to bring justice or. i have every right to know what my government should do if you want to know why i think

taxes. well i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so sleep is if you understand it and then you've lived something else here's some other part of it and realize that everything is ok and. i'm trying hard look at the big picture. let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime. i think. either one well.

we have the government says they're for keeping safe get ready because their freedom. it's. it's. it's. it's it's just. it's.

right it's time for tonight's tool time award and we are giving it to donald trump the businessman called in to fox and friends this morning to offer some words of wisdom on the debt ceiling debate but the donald actually revealed the real reason why he thinks the g.o.p. is holding the economy hostage in this debate take a listen the fact is already the republicans get one hundred percent of what they want but it may include getting rid of obamacare which is a total disaster but they sure got break you know i didn't mind her extension which would take if you can with the election which we are sure that obamacare is your direction which would put electoral which would be great but no you talked about ouch donald trump i actually think the g.o.p. should let the u.s. default on its debt so obama won't be reelected because clearly the republicans are not going to get one hundred percent of what they want surely donald trump is not that stupid maybe you just misspoke after all it was early monday morning navy ad

had its first cup of coffee at. but allege the republican makes the real deal now get a hundred percent of what they have to to make this country great again because right now it is not great they should do more to extend this coverage to right before deal or should we. get reelected i want to turn our that was a second time drum set of coffee and a cake and by the now he's advising the g.o.p. to put the u.s. credit rating in danger all to prevent a second obama term to derail the global markets for this control really that cynical the top two money men in the u.s. right now treasury secretary timothy geithner and fed chairman ben bernanke each have warned the default will be catastrophic for the nation and the world economy if you don't want to trust the government while street has told the g.o.p. idea has to be made if you don't want to trust bankers we've been warned by credit age of credit agencies that our aaa credit rating is in danger of being downgraded

you don't trust ratings agencies while many economists say that if a default takes place the u.s. will have to decide who gets paid and this is not a good thing the president has said that retirement checks and military pay might be in danger interest rates may go up people beyond the president say that that would mean that car loans and house loans would cost more credit card interest rates would go off your debt would be coming more expensive global market may go reeling the dollar could be hit the american people would without a doubt suffer or could suffer more than they already are but from think it's all worth it if obama is that reluctant now trump lives in luxury so he'll be just fine probably if the u.s. defaults not the american worker though who would continue to suffer disproportionately and it is sad that we've reach such a place in the national discourse were donald trump who is a millionaire several times over who has been corrupted several companies would

build totally comfortable making such a statement on t.v. . but he's perfectly willing to push the economy off a ledge and risk the health of the u.s. economy as long as obama is gone i guess the birth certificate thing didn't work so this is his second go and that is why we're getting donald trump tonight still time award. alright i made it through the show and now it's time for the fun part joining me for happy hour is r t correspondent christine for is out and reasons and so is back all right so there is a new twitter hash tag which is very popular and it's not justin bieber and it's not from the other silly ones i saw today it is f. you washington. right it's not based on the now with the we have to blur it out on no it's the real deal and we just wanted to highlight

a few of the very special ones that started on saturday and in matter of hours thousands of people were using it let's look at those so if you washington providing the g.o.p. frame the debate the problem is unemployment not the debt or deficit you lie another person tweeted f. you for using every crisis to make the poor pay for that errors of the rich thereby creating third world levels of inequality and someone else said i dedicate this tweet to every working poor republican who fight so millionaires can have a better life f. you washington what you guys think of you how stab this auto up before ehrlich i was i was just surfacing no the only one for a long time you were only now is that it washington for you to up the regulators were a huge part of the hold of a financial debacle to those credit rating agencies we were talking about before look i'll show you that we're upset at this that's a good point because you know people have been angry at the government all the government hasn't worked for a really long time i think it's funny because it's obviously it's a curse word in that sense of it but it's done a lot to bring

a lot of people together on this issue i mean everybody who looks for this hash tag you find so many people. who are kind of on your team in their anger at what's going on here in washington but what does that say that they're united over twitter but not out at the white house or in front of the capitol saying this is ridiculous we demanded that our government instead people are just content to tweet about it world people live on the internet these days never the problems as we are united in frustration of the government they're not you know what they want your government to do or you are showing that you know for sure that we're from more the left perspective but there's plenty of people on the right that are upset with the government for not screwing around with these problems as well there's only so much you you can have it's a lot easier hundred forty one exact job creators. when you say if you washington that going in the white house that could mean the republicans the democrats and all of us was there just as you said income of everybody ok well let's move on to something that may encompass everybody's attention and there is a russian version of what looks like the jersey shore it is starting august

eleventh on lifetime mark your calendars and here is the trailer. people in america . i know what are you going to be giving me they can. get. all right you guys mark in your calendar. i think it's so interesting and funny i mean it's definitely a lot like the jersey shore here and i'm going to go ahead and admit this on live television i do watch this it's embarrassing i can revisit it i know it's embarrassing but it is kind of my little therapeutic time of studying the brain off and laughing and it's really funny i just got into kind of an argument with my producer over this who says this should not be on television at all this is creating bad things for our society to reward people who act like this and become famous and get paid. but i think that the russians are going to like this as much

as i like. you think this is going to be what's right and they're going to be outraged. yeah well i think i should all story here is it's nice to see lifetime sort of branching out is usually lifetime is going and getting beaten now it's going to be men and. women. it's all it's all going to. live in the body and you know like men and tweak coats and porn and goddesses that are going to be branching out yeah or they're just coming to the need for trashy t.v. material to drive ratings that doesn't lifetime. but the bottom line is the jersey shore's if a nominally well the people i'm very sure make twenty five thousand dollars every time they appear at a bar for like an hour so clearly if you're a business person that in itself i guess could be a reason to replicate what we have yeah and i guess we'll see what prevails the russian spy stereotype that we saw emerge scandal quote unquote or the brighton beach russian party or i guess ok let's move on hong kong scientists have proved

a very sad thing for many people. this my bum you out they found it time travel isn't possible which means this fantasy probably won't exist in reality this on but you know you can with a time machine or you. should be more. time . for my favorite movies growing up i mean and as a kid you were you see this movie and you always think you know maybe size fire old goat or even just the near future we've invented so much you think we could be possible i know it's not not the de lorean and not the whatever you know single photon. said that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light which was just proved and. i'm not a scientist but i think that you can categorically disprove. you can come back around like it was. just i was just saying this i don't mean it isn't science

plenty of people who would have never and maybe would have tried to disprove you know the internet or anything like that but guess what it came anyway i'm not giving up the internet next time travel or time travel can we just be able to tell porter so it's like across the country i do it step by step i'd like to be able to get from here to look at the start of the country in a book about teleporting would be in my mind number one on my legacy a part of myself to the beach this week i think that's all we have time for i wish we could tell but also to be maybe next time that some research comes out with the scientists are wrong that's true thank you very so much for being here and i feel next time i was happy and that is it parts night show thank you for tuning in and make sure to come back tomorrow columbia university psychologist that the pharoah will be on he's going to talk about research showing that google is making us not smarter. and meantime don't forget to become a fan of the old on our show on facebook and follow us on twitter and if you missed any of tonight's show or any other night you can catch it all on youtube dot com

watch the alone or show and keep watching artie because coming up next i was first in the man. into little miracle military mechanisms to know how to bring justice or accountability. i have every right to know what my government's true if you want to know why i paid taxes. i would characterize obama as a charismatic version of american exceptionalism. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so sorely sleep you think you understand it and then he slips something else here sees some other part of it and realized everything is. going to charge welcome to the big fish. says.

let's not forget that we had an apartheid regime right here. i think iraq is beautiful and sunny well. whatever government says they're keeping safe get ready because you give them their freedom. for five ft. five.
